    • If I speak in the tongues of men and angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a tinkling symbol. And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And if I dole out all my goods, and if I deliver my body that I may boast but have not love, nothing I am profited. Love is long suffering, love is kind, it is not jealous, love does not boast, it is not inflated. It is not discourt

    Heartbreak Hill
    She asks how I am doing
    I say stellar, but really
    I'm not doing so well
    Hell, I just got promoted
    My income had doubled
    But I'm feeling sick today
    As I chase away my addiction
    Seductive, not quite enough
    Mr. Almost man I am
    What's black is white
    I have no plans, no goals
    In this place I stand
    I miss her lips, french like mine
    I tell myself over and over it's over
    Just give it time
    A tomorrow like tomorrow
    I'll sit inside and sigh
    Little boy I am filled with sorrow
    I think it's about that time
    A time to grow up
    But other than that I'm doing fine
    So I tell myself

    it's different than your other poems I agree. This one is more ryhming oriented compared to the other pieces I have read. So deep I can feel the pain and picture yourself going through these thoughts in your head. Very well written
